Construction Accidents

“Construction sites are particularly dangerous and injuries sustained in this environment can often be quite serious. If you have been involved in a construction accident, contact Lance Mason Solicitors today for free expert advice.”

How They Happen

Construction accidents come in many different forms, including:

Falls from scaffolding, roofs or ladders

Being struck by falling objects on site

Being electrocuted by faulty or defective machinery

A construction site can be a dangerous place to work. It is your employer’s responsibility to ensure that health and safety standards on construction sites are maintained. If you sustain an injury as a result of your employer failing to adhere to these standards, you may be entitled to compensation.

What Should I Do Following A Construction Accident?

See your doctor as soon as possible; without seeing your doctor straight away, it becomes difficult to diagnose any injuries sustained in the actual accident.

Write down the contact details of any witnesses

Make a note of the time and date of the accident

Ensure you report the accident

If possible, log your accident in the accident book
